RAM ATHLETIC FUND APPRECIATION WEEK KICKS OFF NEXT MONDAY, OCT. 28

Oct 21, 2013

RICHMOND, Va. – Since the start of the 2012-13 athletic
calendar, no athletic department in the Commonwealth of Virginia
has won at a higher rate than VCU. In addition to the on-field
success, the 270-plus student-athletes posted the best academic
year in program history.

Those accomplishments don’t happen without the loyal
support of VCU Athletics’ fundraising arm, the Ram Athletic
Fund. With over 2,000 members of the Ram Athletic Fund and over
1,500 Rowdy Rams, the support for the Black & Gold is bigger
than ever.

The support of the Ram Athletic Fund continues to enhance not
only the lives of our student-athletes, but the entire VCU
community. Athletics can be a tremendous avenue to connect alumni,
parents and friends of VCU. The quest for championships and
student-athlete development begins with the support of the Ram
Athletic Fund.

Today, VCU Athletics kicks off Ram Athletic Fund Appreciation
Week, spending the entire week focused on recognizing all the
support the RAF gives to the Rams. Throughout the week, there will
be daily giveaways, features on various aspects of athletics
fundraising, donor profiles and statements from student-athletes
and coaches on the impact of Ram Athletic Fund on their
experience.
